[QUOTE="Lil, post: 613453, member: 17309"] It's now Saturday night and all in all the weekend has gone better than I expected. Son did spend a good portion of Thanksgiving day running around with friends, but was home early for dinner and has been in and out, but straight when with us. He went to the big family Thanksgiving today with us, played video games, etc. with the other teens and again, it was uneventful. These days I like uneventful. While he's maintaining his habit of staying in his room and watching netflix, because he doesn't want to watch what we're watching, (and even when I offer to change the channel), we managed to have a talk about his "plans". As expected, we can't change his mind but we've decided to deal. I will post more about that on the thread I started earlier. Basically, I decided I was going to manifest peace and calmness this weekend and ignore things like him running around when he hasn't seen us for 2 months. It's actually been almost pleasant - or at least not full of conflict. I'll take it. :) [/QUOTE]
